Abstract

Nowadays automatic testing methods are widely used in GUI testing,which largely depends on programming language,source code analysis,and manual work when using the capture/play tool.Testing cases generation and coverage also lacks systematic management.A highly automated GUI testing system with no dependence on source code is proposed,which is based on the event-flow graphs.In the absence of source code,this method gets GUI components by capturing the mouse movement,which using test tool WinRunner.Then GUI structure with selfdeveloped tool is analyzed automatically,a complete test suite by defining events attributes and test cases generation rules are generated automatically.Finally,experiment is given to verify its efficiency.
